SENSISPLUS: A quantum leap in wine enjoyment

Fine-tuning for already beverage-specific designed glasses

The realisation that the shape and volume of a glass have a significant influence on the perception of taste has been the foundation of wine glass production for decades and has long been a matter of course for wine enthusiasts. The SENSISPLUS feature, however, sets standards that go far beyond traditional design principles and turn the enjoyment of wine into an unrivalled experience:
  • perfects already beverage-specific moulded glasses
  • brings out the full flavour of a freshly opened wine or other opened wine or other beverage brings out its full complexity to its best advantage
  • makes tannins more accessible and creates flavour profiles with their finest nuances
  • intensifies the enjoyment of wine to an unprecedented level
The production method of the SENSISPLUS glasses is a Eisch trade secret - but this much can be said: the glasses get their SENSISPLUS feature without the use of chemicals.   Tip: Taste in the SENSISPLUS glasses also Whisky, Coffeespirits, fruit juices and other drinks. Taste the difference!

The development of SENSISPLUS Glasses

The idea

In recent years and decades, the development of wine glasses has focussed primarily on finding the goblet shape that best showcases a particular wine. Considerable success has been achieved, so that wine connoisseurs now have a variety of different goblet shapes and sizes at their disposal for enjoying fine wines.

However, this approach is increasingly reaching its limits, as an ever-increasing differentiation of glasses beyond the grape varieties (e.g. by growing region or vintage) appears to be technically feasible, but hardly practical for the individual consumer. At Eisch, therefore, the question of how the so-called "optimally" shaped wine glass could be further developed was already being considered at the end of the 1990s.

The glass

The results of this development work are the SENSISPLUS glasses, the pleasure class of Glashütte Eisch. They combine the experience and innovative strength of Glashütte Eisch to create a unique interpretation of the highest level of wine enjoyment and reveal the full flavour potential of wine. The original character of the wine and its structure are retained. Eisch produces the glasses not only for wine, but also for spirits, fruit juices, espresso and more.

Can other manufacturers also offer SENSISPLUS glass?

No. The glasses were made by EISH developed and only EISH can produce them. SENSISPLUS glass is protected as a trade mark.
